The Quick Chek on Broadway in Bayonne sold a $4 million Mega Millions ticket to one lucky New Jersey resident.

Thanks to the decision to spend an extra $1 to use the Megaplier option, the person who purchased the ticket will win quadruple the typical $1 million second prize, according to NJ Lotto. No one has claimed the ticket yet.

The numbers for Friday were 16, 22, 40, 41 and 59. The Mega Ball, which the New Jersey ticket didn't contain, was 8 and the Megaplier was 4x.

Other second-prize tickets were sold in Nebraska and Texas, but are only worth $1 million because they did not include the Megaplier.
